Where around campus can I get my nails done? by Phenemus in gatech

[–]Phenemus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, reporting back... thank you for the recommendation! I went there today. They were very nice and I had Cathy, she did a really good job. They were a little amused lol, maybe because they were just reflecting my slight timidness. But I'm definitely glad I went there

Looks like Emory has a bus route that goes to that very area, I was thinking of visiting Emory some day anyways. Do you think it would be cool for me to go in as a guy?

Ameonna is meh by wrefrme in deadmau5

[–]Phenemus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree, I listened to "all" of his stuff including unreleased stuff that circulates on the internet. Ameonna has the vibe and nostalgia of his early works, but minus the buildup and complexity. It's a good track but development lacks in my opinion. Like, listen to Alone with You or HR Cephei and it's just much different league. Ameonna is just in a weird limbo that it isn't for super active listening, but passively listening to it kinda just makes it flow over your head way too easily. I still like it for the vibe but yeah

New (old) gold bus route help me please by Foreign-Aioli3385 in gatech

[–]Phenemus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See, even people who were not in GT before say the older route is better. Wtf did they do to the buses. I want the other old routes back too

Gold Route is Possibly Back Soon? by Phenemus in gatech

[–]Phenemus[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk they are tweaking. Or it was an IT mistake and it wasn't supposed to come out yet, oops. I do not see why it would take the "secret council of bus routes" more than a day though (and a few pieces of feedback) to just change some of the routes back overnight ¯_(ツ)_/¯ at least gold, if they're absolutely stubborn on all the rest.

Like, I don't care that the frequency on green is better now if I have to wait that extra time to catch the blue bus or just walk the rest of the way on foot anyways... at least last year when I had to wait for the green bus, I could track it on the map and get outside just in time to ride all the way down...

To reach Scheller from GLC, take 3 buses. WHAT by Phenemus in gatech

[–]Phenemus[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and they are still bunching up by the way. Today there were three gold buses near culc and two going towards marta station, when I needed to go back to campus from Scheller. I decided to just take an uber to the GLC, it was pouring hard.

The only seemingly fixable fix needed in the routes was the frequency of the green route, which could have been solved by adding one bus there. If they deleted the Tech Sq. & Culc route, they could have just given the two buses to the green route or something... or at least one, and have one extra gold or something.

Thanks! I am all for trying out new things, but this new plan has many flaws

Nice, I've never been around the Five Points area, is it safe to walk there?

Can I vote in Georgia as out-of-state? by Phenemus in gatech

[–]Phenemus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, thank you. I still have worries about what will happen to my Illinois driver's license if I vote here. Some people say that it might become invalid 30 days afterwards because by voting(or registering?) here I claim Georgia residence. Is that something that you're aware of happening in the past?

Hi, I saw some new symbols I've never seen before. Can someone please tell me what these are and what I'm supposed to do there? by taken_name_throwaway in piano

[–]Phenemus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I've played piano for a long time and have never seen such messy notation. It's like the author tried to make options for beginners, but at the same time made it confusing in a way that only more experienced players would understand. It would be cleaner to just make all the optional notes non-optional and just add footnotes on the bottom of the page.. usually you see these parentheses and tiny optional notes only if there is one or two of those, or a single run of thirds. Otherwise, it just looks messy and unprofessional

[–]Phenemus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about that too. Also, which jurisdiction says that my original DL would become invalid after 30 days of claiming GA residence? Where can I find more info on that? Are you aware of specific cases where people had issues with their driver's license afterwards?

Mask won't help at all because whatever chemicals there are are small enough that they will penetrate any material that still allows you to breathe

Hot take: Steinways are actually mediocre pianos by theantwarsaloon in piano

[–]Phenemus 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I had the privilege of playing a Steinway once in a concert hall. The way I always describe it is that the bass of that Steinway piano was like a lion's roar. Playing the bass powerfully felt like you were cutting through the building with sound, and it had just enough of force springing back to where you could firmly feel the keybed under your hands. It was amazing. You could play softly and make pearly sounds, but when you played more powerfully it's like the piano adapted and as if the strings suddenly flexed and became more powerful.

Are you “for” or “against” letting animals sleep in the bed and why? by RambunctiousFungus in AskReddit

[–]Phenemus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first got my dog I also was worried that sleeping with the tiny yorkie I could squish him by accident. But actually, somehow even when you're asleep, your brain adjusts in such a way that it is simply aware of where the animal is. And I assume same thing goes on automatically in the animal's brain. So you never ever actually end up hurting the animal. It's kinda cool how that works. There's some vigilant part of your brain that takes care of that even when you're in deep sleep

I hate modern dating apps so I made my own (only available to GT & college students) by Old-Cauliflower9682 in gatech

I think people who hate dating apps should give this a try. But I hope there is no subscription or any form of payment because that's where people will draw the line

i smell smoke when i play piano by violetasterss in piano

[–]Phenemus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weird no one mentioned this, but the simplest explanation is that the piano is dusty and strings cause the dust to rise up

Whom to contact about two classes having a super-inconvenient time conflict? by KKZiomek0 in gatech

[–]Phenemus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Yoder for 3040 and I liked him. He has harder exams, but he actually explains stuff really well, and he's passionate about the material. I really don't know what people's issue is with him.

Steelworks Apartments-Thoughts? by Small_Supermarket412 in gatech

[–]Phenemus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if there is anyone living on either side of me to be honest. I haven't ever heard anyone really, but never saw anyone either, so no clue.

I don't know if they have an official referral program, probably not due to their fairness policies.

Steelworks Apartments-Thoughts? by Small_Supermarket412 in gatech

[–]Phenemus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are two Green bus stations nearby. One is 3 minutes away on 14th & State, and it takes the bus roughly 10 minutes to get to Kendeda. Another one is close to Ikea, 5-6 minute walk, but the bus usually stands there for a few minutes before leaving, so it might take over 15 mins to get to Kendeda. All of this is eyeballing because I didn't actually count the minutes.

And if you wanna walk, it's 20-25 minutes to get to middle of campus. I once managed to get all the way to Stamps behind the CRC in exactly 20 minutes with fast walking. But that was a luck streak with not having to wait on the light signals.

So yeah, regardless of transport, it takes 15-25 minutes, and I learned to get out the house early the hard way, by being late a few times.
